KAPA Dual-Indexed Adapter Kit, (15 µM)

KAPA mRNA HyperPrep Kits

Single-Day RNA

The KAPA mRNA HyperPrep Kits utilize novel chemistry that enables the combination of enzymatic steps and fewer reaction purifications, resulting in a truly streamlined solution for the preparation of high-quality mRNA-seq libraries. mRNA capture beads are used prior to library preparation, which enriches for mature mRNA over non-polyadenylated species, such as ribosomal, precursor, and noncoding RNAs.

The strand-specific workflow is flexible – supporting library construction from lower-input amounts and degraded samples. Kits contain all reagents required for mRNA capture and library preparation, with the exception of KAPA Adapters (available separately). Benefits include:

single-day library construction, inclusive of mRNA capture
reduced hands-on and overall time through fewer enzymatic and reaction cleanups
flexible input of 50 ng – 1 µg total RNA*
maintain over 99% strand specificity*
KAPA Pure Beads included for reaction purifications

KAPA RNA HyperPrep Kits

KAPA RNA HyperPrep Kits leverage the same cDNA synthesis and library preparation workflow improvements as outlined for the KAPA mRNA HyperPrep Kits. KAPA RNA Hyper Prep Kits include all enzymes and buffers required for cDNA library preparation, but do not contain mRNA capture reagents or KAPA Adapters. Kits can be used to prepare libraries from 1 ng – 100 ng of total, poly(A)-selected, or rRNA-depleted RNA.

NEW! KAPA Dual-Indexed Adapter Kits are now available. For more information on KAPA Adapter Kits, scroll down to the Ordering section, or download the KAPA Adapter and Bead Calculator.

Product Highlights

The KAPA mRNA HyperPrep Kit results in a reduction in the total number of reads wasted due to both PCR duplicates and alignment to rRNA loci in comparison to the TruSeq and NEBNext kits. Libraries were generated in quadruplicate with 50 ng of high-quality Universal Human Reference (UHR) RNA using the manufacturers’ standard recommendations per workflow, where possible. Sequencing was performed using an Illumina HiSeq® 2500 in High Output mode with v4 chemistry and 2 x 100 bp read length. Reads aligning to rRNA were removed and paired reads were randomly subsampled to 14M for comparative analyses, including marked duplicates. Data on file.

With an equivalent amount of sequencing, more genes and unique transcripts are identified using the KAPA mRNA HyperPrep Kit in comparison to the TruSeq and NEBNext kits. Libraries were generated in quadruplicate with 50 ng of high-quality UHR RNA using the manufacturers’ standard recommendations per workflow, where possible. Sequencing was performed using an Illumina HiSeq® 2500 in High Output mode with v4 chemistry and 2 x 100 bp read length. Reads aligning to rRNA were removed and paired reads were randomly subsampled to 14M for comparative analyses, including marked duplicates. Data on file.

For the top 1000 transcripts, the KAPA mRNA Hyper Prep Kit results in more even coverage across transcript lengths, as assessed by both a normalized coverage plot and coverage coefficient of variation (CV), in comparison to competitor workflows. Libraries were generated with 50 ng of high-quality UHR RNA using the manufacturers’ standard recommendations per workflow, where possible. Sequencing was performed using an Illumina HiSeq® 2500 in High Output mode with v4 chemistry and 2 x 100 bp read length. Reads aligning to rRNA were removed and paired reads were randomly subsampled to 14M for comparative analyses, including marked duplicates. Data on file.

Improved coverage of GC-rich regions (outlined in red) of the YBX1 (rRNA depletion) and SLC2A4RG (mRNA capture) genes, along with improved splice junction and antisense transcript detection was demonstrated using the KAPA mRNA Hyper Prep Kit in comparison to competitor workflows. Libraries were generated with 50 ng of high-quality UHR RNA using the manufacturers’ standard recommendations per workflow, where possible. Sequencing was performed using an Illumina HiSeq® 2500 in High Output mode with v4 chemistry and 2 x 100 bp read length. Reads aligning to rRNA were removed and paired reads were randomly subsampled to 14M for comparative analyses, including marked duplicates. Data on file.
